METEORITE LANDINGS
"A meteorite is a solid piece of debris from an object, such as a comet, asteroid, or meteoroid, that originates in outer space and survives its passage through the atmosphere to reach the surface of a planet or moon."[1]
The visualization below shows all known meteorite landings from the Metorical Society since 1800.[2] The year indicated is the year that the meteorite fell or was found - indicated by color. A "found" meteorite may have fallen many years prior to when it was found. For example, the Hoba meteorite was found in 1920, but is believed to have landed around 80,000 years ago.[3] See if you can find it on the map below!
